CHRISTMAS PLANT MEMORIALS Once again at Saint Joseph’s Parish, we are offering a Christmas Plant Memorial for your living and deceased relatives and friends. Suggested donations: $20 for a small; $25 for a medium; $35 for a large plant. Please CLEARLY print your name, donation amount and the name of the loved one to be remem-bered on a plain white envelope and mark it “CHRISTMAS PLANT.” Send it to the rectory or drop it into the Sunday collection basket. We will then place a plant on the altar for Christmas in memory of your loved one.

Coming to the end of the Church year, we can wonder how we got “extreme unction” out of “anointing of the sick.” “Extreme” comes from a Latin phrase, in extremis, which in English refers to the last struggle of a dying per-son. “Last rites” is a phrase in common usage, and refers to the fact that years ago everyone waited until the last crisis of illness to summon the priest. The goal of anointing had always been healing and forgiveness, but in time it began to be seen as a preparation for death. In a hard world, almost anything from a hangnail to a sneeze could be life�threatening, so perhaps the change was inevitable. The emphasis on the penitential aspects was heightened, even to the odd practice of Rome in the twelfth century, when the sick person was sprinkled with ashes mixed with holy water and given a hair shirt as a sign of penance. The reformers thankfully overlooked some of these oddities of history, and today the sacrament of the sick is much more generously applied to persons in a wide range of situations. Still, it is a sacrament of reconciliation, and for that reason is not celebrated for an infant or toddler, although there is a rite for a visit to a sick child not in-cluding anointing or Communion. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

El 23 de noviembre de 1927, un pelotón de soldados conducía al jesuita mexicano Miguel Agustín Pro Juárez al paredón de fusilamiento. Uno de ellos le susurraba “perdóneme”. Miguel le respondió que no sólo lo perdo-naba, sino que le daba las gracias por darle la oportuni-

dad de dar testimonio de su fe derramando su sangre por Cristo. Días antes había sido arrestado y acusado de intento de asesinato contra el presidente mexicano Álvaro Obre-gón. En realidad su delito era el de bautizar niños, bendecir matrimonios, llevar la comu-nión a los enfermos y escuchar la confesión de los arrepentidos. Miguelito nació en 1891 y entró al

noviciado jesuita en 1914, al mismo tiempo que el go-bierno mexicano comenzaba una persecución en contra de la Iglesia. Debido a esta situación, Miguel tuvo que hacer su formación religiosa fuera de México. Apenas pudo, regresó a su nación como sacerdote e hizo su pastoral a escondidas, sabiendo muy bien que podía ser martirizado. Miguel decía a sus amigos que al morir iría al cielo y si se encontraba con santos resecos, bailaría un jarabe tapatío hasta hacerles sonreír para Cristo Rey. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe

Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, Rey del Universo

THE LORD’S FLOCK Sheep are high-maintenance animals. They are not very intelligent. Without guidance and care, especially in a climate like Israel’s, they would die quickly from preda-tors, starvation, or just their own slowness. The scriptural image of us as the Lord’s flock is not terribly flattering to us, since it is only the never-ending diligence of a watchful shepherd that allows the flock to survive. The feast of Christ the King was intended to call the world back to Christ as the sole pow-er of the world, to bring back a flock that had been scattered by many negative forces of the growing industrial, scientific, and war�torn world of the early twentieth century. It is fitting that, as we celebrate Christ the King, we hear about Christ the Shepherd who cares for us and who, likewise, will be there at the end of time. Interestingly enough, as the Gos-pel illustrates, our own destiny is determined by the way we have been “shepherds” to the rest of the flock. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

EL REBAÑO DE JESÚS Las ovejas son animales que necesitan mucha atención. No son muy inteligentes. Especialmente en un clima como el de Israel, morirían rápidamente a causa de predadores, hambre o por su lentitud. La imagen bíblica de nosotros

como el rebaño del Señor no es halagadora por-que solamente con la vigilancia constante del pastor cuidadoso el rebaño puede sobrevivir. La institución de la fiesta de Cristo Rey fue motivada por la intención de llevar el mun-do a Cristo como el único poder de este mundo; y también de hacer volver el rebaño dispersado por las tantas fuerzas negativas del creciente mundo industrial y científico, desgarrado por la guerra, del siglo veinte. Mientras celebramos a Cristo Rey, es muy apropiado entender que el

Cristo Pastor nos cuida ahora y va a estar presente en el mo-mento de la separación de buenos y malos en el juicio final. Como el Evangelio ilustra bien, nuestro propio destino está determinado por nuestro servicio como pastores al resto del rebaño. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co
